Honestly, the cartridge system was a (pardon the pun) game changer. Sure someone did it first but Atari really made it main stream. It allowed for a lot of what we see today. Sure you were dropping what was about a $1,000 in today’s money on a toy for you and your kids but you could play so many games on it.
The idea that you had a machine in your living room that you could change what it did just by putting in a new cartridge was mind breaking in the 70’s. Sure your TV could play 5 or 6 channels maybe but it still was a TV, getting a Atari made it a home entertainment system. The whole one machine that did so many different games paved the way for the whole home entertainment universe we have today.

You know what they say. You fuck ONE goat!

Props to your mom for “Monkey Fucking, Kitty Bitch!” I’m gonna steal that. It’s mine now.

And a really good movie.

Yeah and it’s amazing that they took this crazy idea from a kids cartoon and made it work!

Am I crazy or didn’t we see these in Big Hero 6?

This is good news, he’s good actor, and considering his look I’m sure it’s hard to find work. Not a lot of calls for albino actors. But if he’s playing Tombstone hopefully that means he’ll also get to do a scene with D’Onofrio and the two of them together should me amazing.

Thanks I bought it and I’ll give it a run next weekend

I’ve been looking to buy this but the DLC worries me. Is the game complete on its own or do you really need the whole bundle?

Honestly I’ve got the kids bedroom tv on a Pi 3 running LibrElec just fine. Kodi isn’t that resource intensive so it works great. But if you’re feeling fancy setting up a db to hold all your info so you can share it on multiple end really is nice. I love being able to stop a movie in the living room because I’m getting tired and pick it up in the bedroom at the exact same spot.

Ok here’s what I do … but be aware that I’ve had this same set for about 10 years so I’m sure everyone will bag on it but it works. On my main HTPC (the living room 60" screen) I have run Ubuntu as the background OS and auto open Kodi with the Confluence skin. I’ve added a few add on’s for streaming and an add on that spans a Steam instance in Big Picture for my steam games and an add on for Lutris for other games. Lutris takes a bit of fiddling with to get it to run your games (a lot of set up scripts and downloading runners for emulators, but nothing to bad). I added a MCE remote and a IR receiver to move around in Kodi and attached a couple of Xbox Bluetooth controllers for gaming. I boosted my set up by moving my Kodi database on to my server with mySQL so that the librelec’s running in the bedrooms all share the same database but that’s a fancy touch that took a hour or so of set up that you don’t need to do.

Hey Crabman!

Ah yeah. I gave up on jellyfin pretty quickly as I do everything on my local network and jelly isn’t for that I guess.

I’m kinda of lost with this. I run 3 librelec units on RaspberryPis velcroed to the back of TVs in my house and once I set them up they run easy as. I set them by setting what my network folders are ( I’m a bit of a data hoarder so I’ve got each tv series in their own folders and each movie and their filled in its own folders) and then hitting scan. Is it because of Jellyfin that you’re having problems? I tried setting it up but gave up when I realised I’d have to let it be a server and frankly I don’t trust my in-laws not to fuck up and post all my details on their Facebook to show off their new personalise steaming services.

“changing summer vacation plans to stay in Canada” - might I humbly suggest other commonwealth countries get in on this as well Summer in Canada is winter in Australia so you’ll find it quite nice and frankly Britain could use all the tourists it can get Anywhere in the commonwealth also has very easy visa requirements so honestly you won’t have to worry about ICE kicking in your door just because your passport is a funny colour
